The HHE Program uses various types of samplers to measure workplace exposure to chemicals and other substances in the air as well as to measure workplace exposure to other potential hazards such as noise. Workplace exposure sampling can be done during an entire workshift or during a specific work task. Exposure samplers are most commonly worn during a persons' usual work and generally will not get in the way of the work. Persons who have exposure sampling done will be notified of their results. Workplace exposure sampling is an important part of the HHE Program's goal to assist employees, employers, and unions in identifying occupational health hazards and recommending ways to reduce or eliminate those hazards (NIOSH Pub.

This video provides a simple, yet profound lesson. The radio frequency radiation being transmitted from your wireless router or modem is extremely toxic and detrimental to your health. Notice how high the measurements are on the RF meter! Most of us are living and working in this type of RF radiation exposure every single day and night. The fix, or remediation is simple. Plug your modem or router into your computer using an Ethernet connection (hardwire), and "disable" the wireless function on your modem or router. This is very important for the health and safety of all those in your home or office. If you need to use the wireless function, then turn it on for a short time, do your task or watch your movie, then disable it once again. Never leave your wireless internet on all night as it will cause sleep disturbances which lead to even worse health issues. The fix is simple! Ethernet cord and disable the wireless function.

Hazard

A hazard is a situation that poses a level of threat to life, health, property, or environment. Most hazards are dormant or potential, with only a theoretical risk of harm; however, once a hazard becomes "active", it can create an emergency. A hazardous situation that has come to pass is called an incident. Hazard and possibility interact together to create risk.

Modes of a hazard

Hazards are sometimes classified into three modes:

Dormant—The situation presents a potential hazard, but no people, property, or environment is currently affected. For instance, a hillside may be unstable, with the potential for a landslide, but there is nothing below or on the hillside that could be affected.

Armed—People, property, or environment are in potential harm's way.

Active—A harmful incident involving the hazard has actually occurred. Often this is referred to not as an "active hazard" but as an accident, emergency, incident, or disaster.

Employees, employers, and labor unions can request assistance from the HHE program at no cost to them. The HHE program responds to requests through a variety of methods, including telephone consultations and field investigations. For field investigations, NIOSH provides a report detailing the hazards found and outlining remediation recommendations. NIOSH does not have the authority to force the employer to comply with these recommendations. The report is given to the requestor, the employer, employee representatives, OSHA, and other appropriate agencies; most reports are posted on the NIOSH website.

List of IEC standards

The numbers of older IEC standards were converted in 1997 by adding 60000; for example IEC 27 became IEC 60027.
IEC standards often have multiple sub-part documents; only the main title for the standard is listed here.

L04-3-06: Hazard and Stall (with 中文字幕)

Quick at home measuring of DM

It is possible to quickly determine the dry matter (DM) content of grass by drying in the microwave oven, but be careful as it can easily catch fire! Therefore, separate the drying in shorter intervals. The special fibre plates (from Ekolag.se) decreases the fire hazard and makes the drying more effective. The sample should be chopped and 10.0 g is enough, but such a small sample has to be taken and mixed carefully to be representative. The scale needs to have an accuracy of 0.1 g (available at Ekolag.se).
Do like this: Mix the sample in a plastic bag with air, like in the video above. Weigh up 10.0 g on a kitchen paper on the tared scale (press Tare or T to get the tare weight), then spread out the grass, place it on the fibre plate and put it in the microwave oven. Run on full effect for 30 seconds. Weigh out the sample and repeat 30 sec intervals in the microwave oven until the weight does not change more than 0.2 g. Never leave the microwave when it is running! In the video's example the weight stops at 3.3 g, which according to experience represents 32%.

Sources that create nanoparticle aerosols can be difficult to recognize because the airborne particles are too small to be seen. One way to identify particle sources is to use aerosol instruments to create a color-coded map of particle concentrations, commonly referred to as a hazard map. This activity uses noise measurements to demonstrate a hazard mapping technique and how to use an instrument to obtain measurements that will determine the spatial distribution of a hazard.

This video provides a simple, yet profound lesson. The radio frequency radiation being transmitted from your wireless router or modem is extremely toxic and detrimental to your health. Notice how high the measurements are on the RF meter! Most of us are living and working in this type of RF radiation exposure every single day and night. The fix, or remediation is simple. Plug your modem or router into your computer using an Ethernet connection (hardwire), and "disable" the wireless function on your modem or router. This is very important for the health and safety of all those in your home or office. If you need to use the wireless function, then turn it on for a short time, do your task or watch your movie, then disable it once again. Never leave your wireless internet on all night as it will cause sleep disturbances which lead to even worse health issues. The fix is simple! Ethernet cord and disable the wireless function.
And no, that is not a cell phone on my desk in the charger, it is an iPod. My cell phone sits in my car. I don't even know my cell number and I make about 2 to 3 calls a month on it, if that many.

It is possible to quickly determine the dry matter (DM) content of grass by drying in the microwave oven, but be careful as it can easily catch fire! Therefore, separate the drying in shorter intervals. The special fibre plates (from Ekolag.se) decreases the fire hazard and makes the drying more effective. The sample should be chopped and 10.0 g is enough, but such a small sample has to be taken and mixed carefully to be representative. The scale needs to have an accuracy of 0.1 g (available at Ekolag.se).
Do like this: Mix the sample in a plastic bag with air, like in the video above. Weigh up 10.0 g on a kitchen paper on the tared scale (press Tare or T to get the tare weight), then spread out the grass, place it on the fibre plate and put it in the microwave oven. Run on full effect for 30 seconds. Weigh out the sample and repeat 30 sec intervals in the microwave oven until the weight does not change more than 0.2 g. Never leave the microwave when it is running! In the video's example the weight stops at 3.3 g, which according to experience represents 32%.

Sources that create nanoparticle aerosols can be difficult to recognize because the airborne particles are too small to be seen. One way to identify particle sources is to use aerosol instruments to create a color-coded map of particle concentrations, commonly referred to as a hazard map. This activity uses noise measurements to demonstrate a hazard mapping technique and how to use an instrument to obtain measurements that will determine the spatial distribution of a hazard.

Hazard Vulnerability Analysis Webinar October 8, 2015

L04-3-06: Hazard and Stall (with 中文字幕)

Measuring Process Effectiveness through KPI Selection

Continuing our ongoing efforts to provide you with the latest and most relevant information, the next webinar in our ongoing aerospace series will be on the measurement of process effectiveness through effective key performance indicator (KPI) selection.

Risk, vulnerability and resilience

In this lecture, Dr. Lori Peek discusses sociological theories of disaster and vulnerability. She highlights the variables that characterize vulnerability to the impacts of disasters, and notes that much research on vulnerable populations does not focus on the social systems and power relations that exacerbate risk. She then discusses the pressure and release model to characterize the temporal impacts of disasters. She uses the example of a project on the Gulf Coast that looks at the impacts of oil spills on youth health, and she explains the range of methodological approaches used to measure these impacts. Finally, she discusses how she and collaborators have built on vulnerability research to create curricula for high school students to engage in disaster recovery.

Economics of Disaster Prevention: Measuring the Costs and Benefits

Addressing recurrent vulnerability to natural hazards through disaster risk reduction (DRR) has become a central tenet of modern statehood and a critical component of humanitarian and development practice. A major obstacle in attracting the interest and commitment of policymakers to the DRR agenda is a dearth of evidence on the economic benefits of disaster prevention and a lack of understanding about how to measure the costs and benefits of preventative action. In short, when one says $1 spent on prevention saves $4 in disaster losses, what exactly does one mean and how does one arrive at those figures across highly variable contexts? This event will consider the latest thinking and action in measuring costs and benefits of DRR.

Using house dust to measure chemicals affecting children

Dr. TODD WHITEHEAD of the Center for Integrative Research on Childhood Leukemia and the Environment at the University of California Berkeley shows that dust from houses can be used to measure chemicals that children are exposed to at home, particularly PAHs, PCBs, PBDEs, and tobacco smoke constituents. He shows that measurements taken several years after a child is born are useful to estimate earlier exposure.

Ben Caldecott, Director of the Sustainable FinanceProgramme (formerly Stranded Assets Programme) at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford, talks on the future of measuring exposure to environmental risk and opportunity in investment portfolios at the University of Oxford, Risky Business, and Ceres event at the University Club of San Francisco on the 29 March 2016.
The event will explore the opportunities to transform the way investors measure company exposure to environmental risk and opportunity. Advanced analytics, 'big data', and remote sensing could give asset managers and asset owners, as well as regulators and civil society, critically important information on environmental performance currently missing from existing corporate-level voluntary reporting. The aim of the event is to develop a view on how these new approaches could support the objectives of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and what new research could be done in these areas.

NIOSH Health Hazard Evaluations: Sampling for Exposures

http://www.cdc.gov/niosh
This short video describing the basics of exposure sampling that occurs as part of the NIOSHHealth Hazard Evaluation (HHE) Program. The HHE Program uses various types of samplers to measure workplace exposure to chemicals and other substances in the air as well as to measure workplace exposure to other potential hazards such as noise. Workplace exposure sampling can be done during an entire workshift or during a specific work task. Exposure samplers are most commonly worn during a persons' usual work and generally will not get in the way of the work. Persons who have exposure sampling done will be notified of their results. Workplace exposure sampling is an important part of the HHE Program's goal to assist employees, employers, and unions in identifying occupational health hazards and recommending ways to reduce or eliminate those hazards (NIOSH Pub. No 2014-118).

The NIOSHHealth Hazard Evaluation Program visits workplaces across the country to help identify occupational health hazards and recommend ways to reduce or eliminate those hazards. In this video, you’ll see how we measured for contaminants on workplace surfaces and workers’ hands at an electronics recycler. You’ll also hear from the employer and employees about their experience with the HHEProgram. You can learn more about the HHE Program by visiting http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/hhe/

Alex Fong, Senior Vice President of G&H Instrumentation and Life Sciences discusses the use of the Gooch & Housego Instruments (http://www.ghinstruments.com/) OL 750 Spectroradiometer in critical IEC 62471 Photobiological Hazard Measurements. IEC 62471:2006 pertains to the "Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems". Per the IEC: "Gives guidance for evaluating the photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems including luminaires. Specifically it specifies the exposure limits, reference measurement technique and classification scheme for the evaluation and control of photobiological hazards from all electrically powered incoherent broadband sources of optical radiation, including LEDs but excluding lasers, in the wavelength range from 200 nm through 3000 nm. This standard was prepared as StandardCIE S 009:2002 by the International Commission on Illumination." https://webstore.iec.ch/publication/7076&preview=1

Notice how high the measurements are on the RF meter! Most of us are living and working in this type of RF radiation exposure every single day and night. The fix, or remediation is simple. Plug your modem or router into your computer using an Ethernet connection (hardwire), and "disable" the wireless function on your modem or router. This is very important for the health and safety of all those in your home or office. If you need to use the wireless function, then turn it on for a short time, do your task or watch your movie, then disable it once again. Never leave your wireless internet on all night as it will cause sleep disturbances which lead to even worse health issues. The fix is simple! Ethernet cord and disable the wireless function.

In addition, if you want to be able to assess dangerous RF exposure levels anywhere you are, neighborhood, home, apartment, condo, then be sure to purchase a radio frequency meter and learn how to use it! These videos are not created to sell products. The products are being made available because of our increasing EMF exposure levels.

Risk, vulnerability and resilience

In this lecture, Dr. Lori Peek discusses sociological theories of disaster and vulnerability. She highlights the variables that characterize vulnerability to the impacts of disasters, and notes that much research on vulnerable populations does not focus on the social systems and power relations that exacerbate risk. She then discusses the pressure and release model to characterize the temporal impacts of disasters. She uses the example of a project on the Gulf Coast that looks at the impacts of oil spills on youth health, and she explains the range of methodological approaches used to measure these impacts. Finally, she discusses how she and collaborators have built on vulnerability research to create curricula for high school students to engage in disaster recovery.

CEEN 341 - Lecture 21 - Methods to Measure Undrained Shear Strength

Learning Objectives:
1) Explain the difference between the UU, the CD, and the CU triaxial tests.
2) Compute the the undrained cohesion or undrained shear strength from UU test results.
3) Explain why the undrained shear strength tends to be lower in an unconfined compression test than in a UU triaxial test.
4) Compute the undrained shear strength from the vane shear test.
5) Compute the undrained shear strength from the Su/sigma ratio.
6) Select the appropriate shear strength (drained or undrained) for use in design for a given engineering loading scenario.
Critical questions to answer:
1) Why is the failure envelope flat in a UU triaxial test or an unconfined compression test?
2) Which assumptions to we make when we perform a UU triaxial test or an unconfined compression test? Are these assumptions valid? Why or why not?
3) Why is the undrained shear strength typically lower in an unconfined compression test than in a UU triaxial test?

The Future of Measuring Environmental Risk and Opportunity in Investment Portfolios

Ben Caldecott, Director of the Sustainable FinanceProgramme (formerly Stranded Assets Programme) at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford, talks on the future of measuring exposure to environmental risk and opportunity in investment portfolios at the University of Oxford, Risky Business, and Ceres event at the University Club of San Francisco on the 29 March 2016.
The event will explore the opportunities to transform the way investors measure company exposure to environmental risk and opportunity. Advanced analytics, 'big data', and remote sensing could give asset managers and asset owners, as well as regulators and civil society, critically important information on environmental performance currently missing from existing corporate-level voluntary reporting. The aim of the event is to develop a view on how these new approaches could support the objectives of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and what new research could be done in these areas.
